I’ll play along (even though it’s not completed yet.

Samick Greg Bennett MH2 prototype body - $63

Delano Xtender 4 HE/S pickups - $290
Hipshot Triple Lockdown bridges - $124
Ellis Guitars X Series pickup blending system - $330
Guyker tuners - $40
Tesi-Switch momentary kill switch - $40
Cheap gold knobs from Amazon - $10

$834 into a $63 bass. I probably shouldn’t have added that up. Kinda feeling sick now .
